Oh friends, not these tones!
Rather, let us raise our voices in more pleasing
And more joyful sounds!
Joy! (Joy!)
So lets the active and lurking 1160 or so member of FFL sing
together with Beethoven - Ode an die Freude -Ode to Joy and join with
our 10 000 amateur chorus singers Far Eastern brother/sister/friends
in this moving tribute to all the victims of the Fukushima disaster.
Let's join in this a striking"Daiku" environment(Daiku suggests a
relationship to the word haiku but with digital shorts- a portal
between the physical and metaphysical worlds-visual and sonic component)
and performance of Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" in Osaka, Japan, conducted
by a student of my friend Seiji Ozawa himself student of my beloved
Karajan

Joy, beautiful spark of the gods*
Daughter of Elysium,
We enter, drunk with fire,
Heavenly one, your sanctuary!
Your magic reunites
What custom's sword strictly divided.

bosom of nature. No thought can go so far...
